Vanessa Hudgens Reveals Jennifer Lopez's Important Career Advice

The 30-year-old actress explained that while filming, she had an “insane connection” with Jennifer, who wanted to help her on and off set.

“We’d be between sets, and we’d just talk. I’d tell her about my career and where I think I’m lacking, and she’d tell me what she thinks the right steps are to get to where I want to be,” Vanessa told Haute Living.

She added, “She told me, ‘If you aren’t happy in a certain aspect of your career, look at who is doing what you want to be doing, and mimic it. [Jennifer] was great at being like, ‘In order to do that, you’ve got to do this,’ and she spells it out in the most simplistic way possible. And I’d be like, ‘Oh yeah, of course, I’ll do that, and I’m going to conquer the world just like you!’”
